A Secret Age Gap Relationship with Miranda Priestly Would Include
Headcanons because I'm excited for the sequel and for Mother to return
You’re the assistant that’s always ready to go above and beyond for Miranda
While you’re excellent at your job, she always remains firm, calculating, and offers you zero favoritism
If anything, she’s more critical with you in front of others
But behind closed doors she’s soft and teasing. It’s like she dares you to challenge her with your impressive wit, but only when you’re alone
It started out as a simple service you could offer her: A way to help her release her frustrations whenever she felt slightly out of control
You’d go over to her place to drop off the book and end up staying for however long she required you
It was usually quick followed by little conversation
Which isn’t to say it wasn’t an extremely satisfying physical relationship. She knows how to make her partner happy and always strives to be the best at what she does
And then one day, after work hours, she called you over and you were greeted with dinner instead of normally being expected to strip right away
You’re uncertain what to talk about with her at first when she looks so vulnerable
“Tell me about that book you’ve been reading. It must be devastatingly well written for you to be so distracted by it”
She can never just simply show interest in you or your hobbies. She always has to act above everything
But you know she does pay attention because she gifts you exclusive editions of your favorite books and albums before they even drop
She rarely touches you in public, but occasionally if you sit across from her during a meeting her foot will find a way to lightly brush your ankle
Or she might keep a guiding hand on your back whenever you have to walk through crowds and cameras
What she’ll settle for is knowing she’s the only one that gets to pick out what undergarments you wear each day
Fancy lingerie is something she doesn’t care too much about wearing herself, but she thrives on dressing you up in the finest lace and silk pieces from Italy and France
You enjoy going to the theater and ballet with her, especially when you can get a private viewing box
By the final act she’s already whispered to you exactly what she expects when you get back to her place
And sometimes it’s just a few drinks and a bath. She is an older woman with less energy than she had 30 years ago
But you don’t mind what it is you’re doing. You simply enjoy being the only one that gets to see her this way
And no one else at the company knows. Except for possibly Nigel
